But those were significantly smaller groups of people with significantly worse quality of life.
In addition the ones that got bigger naturally evolved centralized governing structures. Even before that all the groups had leaders or some group(elders) making decisions that can effect the whole group.
Cleaning a outhouse after 50 people from time to time, isn’t that big of an issue and can be done just for the good of the whole group. It can be easily done in rotation or a group just gets together in an afternoon and digs a new one.
Doing the same after 100 000 up to 1 000 000+ people is in orders of magnitude more difficult and time consuming.
Same applies to any governing structure.
Even the idea OP brought up needs a governing body of some sort to allocate resources and work plans.
Indigenous peoples figured this shit out before centralized governments and computers, I’m sure we can think of something.
